Venture Capital T-Shirts at vcwear.com

Finally, this industry gets its own t-shirts site. A hoax, of course, unless you have $100 to blow on some fine American Apparel cotton.

1% ORLY

As a side note, it’s very weird working in a profession where you are both constantly courted as well as deeply reviled by some people, most often due to ignorance of what venture capital actually does. The whole industry has done a mediocre job of communicating to entrepreneurs, the public and government what the social value as well as the constraints of the venture capital business model are. I know folks like EVCA are working on it but I wonder how we could find a better way to communicate more directly to the public. There are plenty of entrepreneurs who sing VC’s praises, but they seldom rise above the clamor of those who have been turned down or have legitimate reasons for their prejudice.

P.S. They should so expand into the blue shirt / khaki pants market. Low-hanging fruit, really.
